ST. PAUL — The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is requesting input on its “4 the Outdoors Report.”
The report identifies the biggest challenges in securing financial resources to support natural resource management for both conservation and recreation.
In this stage of the multi-year report, the DNR is asking for residents to fill out a questionnaire. Input like values and preferences for the use and application of fees will help the DNR develop a new fee schedule that enhances user experience without creating barriers to access, the agency said.
More information is available on the DNR’s “Investing in Minnesota’s Outdoor Resources” webpage.
